Firstly, I suggest Otex, it'll clear your ears out......

Secondly, what pubs do you go to, I would love to go to pubs where the singers are this good......

Haha!

I really like her. Michael Bolton was a bit creepy though.

Sam is the best singer in the competition but I don't think she will win unfortunately - too many kids voting who won't vote for an over on principle. Many youngsters think the music business is only for kids. However, Sam will do very well on the back of X-Factor and I am looking forward to seeing her on stage at some point.

I agree Sam has a great voice but I think Robbie Williams was right when he said he didn't see where she would fit musically. Yes she would be a great cruise ship singer but ...... oh yeah, she's already done that. I'm not saying I don't like her, I do but I don't know what sort of album she would make.

Some people really irritate me, if she was young and had a great body with her boobs in your face then they would think she was amazing, Because she doesn't fit the mould for the worldwide stereotype star then she is classed as cruise ship.

People talk utter crap.

Agree it was a bad song choice and didnt showcase her voice, but a pub or cruise ship singer ............please

I just wish she would have sung the song that Tamera sung, she would have done a 10X better job than Tamera

I feel your pain. I hate other people's opinions sometimes

Imagine going to a pub and hearing that Would have to be a pretty good pub...

She can sure belt it out. But, I really don't see her having a major label recording artist career. Her winner's single would do well and that would be it.

I actually think she was more pub/club singer at the start but that something else is emerging. She probably won't win due to the young voting element but I think she'll make a darned sight more money than a prison officer.

Being able to make a decent living doing something you love has a lot to recommend it. It's not all about being a high flyer in the charts.

I think the song was wrong for her. It's not a song to be belted out.

It was never written to be performed like she did it so it left me utterly cold

Not saying it was bad but wasn't great

She was brilliant tonight, a pub singer I think not!

A Judy Garland would have been better - Get Happy or I can't help loving that man of mine.

She has been consistent throughout and might win but as a long term prospect then it's a no

But that's the problem - she's a big ballad belter and that's it. I really don't get all the hype around her. It's a joke to say she's 'world class'

I see singers like her all the time. No star quality, just high notes and power ballads. Just like Mary Byrne for me.

Abi to win. But I think Sam Callahan will.

Or Leanne from The Voice, who sank without trace. People may vote but they won't buy their records.

For me, she has no originality, she's just another competent singer. I wouldn't recognise her voice.

He may stick around but he's definitely not going to win this. Towards the end the singing becomes more important than ever and a bad final can rob someone from a win (Rhydian). Sam C won't win.

Yes. Sam C looks the part and has charisma. He's hasn't got a strong voice but with the right songs, he can sell records. He also appeals to women, just like Olly Murs and 1D.

I thought tonight he was good. Definitely his best performance. He owned Big Band, the movement and stage presence and dressing, IMO only Abi and Sam did Big Band good. Although Rough Copy surprised me.

If I'm a record producer, the only two I'd be looking at would be Abi and Sam Callahan. The rest we've seen before (Tamera and Rough Copy) and won't sell records (Sam Bailey and Hannah)
